If you read “won’t be able to access” as “forbidden by our TOS to access” that can still be true. Or - literally - at some point in the future they will introduce some preventative measures.
I must have missed something. Why not just use the water without the compressed air, i.e., pumped hydro? There must be some advantage, but they didn't seem to say. I'd guess maybe if your lower reservoir were underground, the water-only would require the generator systems to be down there, too, which would mean access for people as well, and being down a mine with a small lake's worth of water overhead seems pretty hazardous. Whereas by forcing air down to push water up, that whole below ground aspect can be almost entirely passive. Maybe?

Sounds like It's not that they can't ban players without a PSN account, but the punishment of being banned from playing any of your PS games online is real motivator. I thought we realized eons ago that forced puritanism is the antithesis of humanity.
For new languages writing build tools in the language gives you convenient access to meta programming capabilities and removes a dependency (like python in your example)

Nope. That allows them to control the market. Find new ideas that could threaten the big 5 status quo. Fund them. Get them bought by one of the big five (making a good amount of money off that). Let the big five shutdown the competition.

Conflict of interest only applies if you think they’re concerned with the public good. There is no assumption of that here. Every man for himself.

BTW, I continue to try HtmlUnit before using other current HeadLess options because HtmlUnit doesn't have an indirection to the webpage, the object is the webpage, instead, many of the current frameworks enforce you to talk to the browser, not be the browser.

Requiring nix for a language would be a large barrier for adoption. It will never be straightforward and will always be niche.
They’re right, it’s your “correcting” comment that’s wrong
It could all be python, but you would need many customization points to serve all the use cases needed to build natively compiled code in all its forms.

Language ecosystems like Rust and Go, and even Haskell shrink the problem space to a smaller universe to grab dependencies. You can see this by how awkward it would be to build a program containing those three languages. They all have different package repositories and build workflows.

C, Fortran, C++ have very rough tools, but the community wants, and often needs, a wide range of dependency management options. Like mixing languages. Or shipping to PYPI. Or integrating with exotic embedded build environments.
Caddy is at the same level as nginx/apache. It is able to do everything a web server is expected to (serving web sites, files and proxying services) plus handling LetsEncrypt automatically. It does not, afaik, do dynamic service discovery like traefik nor load balancing of TCP at the protocol layer, like e.g. haproxy.

That would only cover the simplest feed-forward designs: combinational circuits and versions with extra registers added for timing reasons.

As soon as you introduce any kind of feedback in your RTL design it's possible to do any kind of computation that SW can do and therefore proving correctness is difficult.
What's Up Python? Lots of WASM, Pydantic on Fire, and Guido in a Crossword
Calling the Xerox system 'drafts' is a disservice to its invention.

As noted by deaddodo (thanks), I was merely referencing how Apple tried to sue Microsoft, raising eyebrows of Xerox who then called Apple out--who 'took inspiration' from who and how much all came out into public record. While we're at it may as well credit Douglas Engelbart for "The Mother of All Demos" (1968) for conceiving of such devices.

It's merely lighthearted amusement to see Xerox 'credited' on the docs. The Macintosh was the greatest thing to happen in 1984, I still remember reading and rereading my SciAm issue where I first saw it. I was already into graphics/gaming on the Atari but seeing WYSIWYG was something else. Xerox, Apple, Microsoft all get some credit for invention, refinements, and bringing it to the consumer masses.

Why should we try to unlearn "bad" behaviours from AI?

There is no AGI without violence, its part of being free thinking and self survival.

But also by knowing that launching a first strike by a drunk president was a bad idea we averted a war because of a few people, AI needs to understand consequences.

It seems futile to try and hide "bad" from AI.
Paywalling existing free functionality is the most creatively bankrupt and fast way to get me to never buy your product.
Also, what will the effect of open models be on the LLM provider industry? What effect will Meta’s scorched earth policy of killing markets by releasing very good open models have?

I use LLMs constantly, but no longer in a commercial environment (I am retired except for writing books, performing personal research projects, and small consulting tasks). I now usually turn first to local models for most things: ellama+Emacs is good enough for me to mostly stop using GPT-4+Emacs or GitHub Copilot, the latest open 7B, 8B, 30B models running on my Mac seem sufficient for most of the NLP and data manipulating things I do.

However, it is also fantastic to have long context Gemini, OpenAI APIs, Claude, etc. available when needed or just to experiment with.
Skeeto is a legend. Up there with Febrice Bellard in my book. I've followed him on GH for years and he just drops bangers of weird niche little tools that are always interesting.

Well, why not use currency symbols to represent language? Same amount of correctness.

If you like flags because they are colorful and memorable icons, you can use them to represent time zones. Much more convenient than some obscure "UTC+7" or "PT", isn’t it?
Acknowledge the use of disrespectful as not ideal language. And I've nothing against moving cars into front gardens, living in a car dependant society is not any individuals fault. I'm strugling to describe the behaviour well. It's perhaps a cultural attitude where this is just the thing to do, without having a heavy heart and without thought of any compromise even where people posess the means and nouse to acomplish something different. I guess this applies to so many things though...
I've gotten a transmission through my radiator via earth to my computer speakers somehow. With the volume at 0 it still played but was cut when I touched the radiator.

I thought I was going cracy when turning the volume to zero did not cut it before I realized it was radio hehe.

Maybe there can be accidental demodulation somehow?

Doing so requires more than just specially designed lenses and sensors, Utsumi says, because no matter how well designed and built those components are, there will be imperfections. For instance, consider an image taken by an ordinary camera: There will always be some distortions in shape and color near the edges. There will also be slight distortions in the digital sensors as well, and similar effects will hold true for the LSST Camera. "We need to understand what's going on there so we can correct for it."

Utsumi and his team took thousands of images over three months with the LSST Camera sensors of all sorts of shapes and patterns. They then compared the camera's images with the originals to understand how to correct for any distortions or errors. The team has also worked on how to correct other issues, such as the fact that brighter objects appear larger than they actually are, as well as "ghosts," or images of an object that appear because of electronic crosstalk between sensors within the camera.

from https://phys.org/news/2023-09-lsst-camera.html

For the characterization of CCD image sensors, it is the same idea, see for example this company that does CCD testing machine: https://www.ci-systems.com/ccd-testing

For the mirrors, I once visited a lab that does mirrors for astrophysics, and it measure the mirror shape with wave-front instruments (basically it's interferometry, you look at the phase difference of a wave to measure distances).
Interesting stats to keep in mind: nearly 75% of prisoners had absent fathers (including live-in absenteeism), this number is nearly 90% for homeless communities members.
That's the way I see it.

Just as an example I am familiar with: so many people appear to begin a project like a MAME cabinet with SketchUp.

I like "Cardboard Assisted Design" and have literally built several MAME cabinet prototypes in cardboard where iteration is easy with merely a box-cutter knife.

When the ergonomics and part-fitting is "go", I take measurements from the cardboard proto and move to wood.

Designing acrylic parts for later laser-cutting I have also used "CAD" for prototyping — sometimes even flat-bed scanning the chipboard prototype and then moving to a vector drawing app to overlay the laser-friendly beziers.

Even for PCB layout I often will laser-print the PCB as a final sanity check: punching holes in the paper and shoving the actual electronic components in to see that everything will fit before I send the file off to Taiwan.
Don’t build something if you don’t have a use case. All you have is a wishlist, until someone says “yes I want this here is $$$” which I assume the email will facilitate.
I love treafik, we use it with nomad/consul and docker to setup our whole infrastructure. The plugin system is also simple yet powerful and the dynamic configs are great for our customers custom domains, we can quickly see if a domain points to the right IP and put it in to get everything working. And of a domain no longer points to is we get a slack notification and it removes it from traefik so it no longer tries to get SSL certificates for it.
This makes me so mad. Every time I have to show my nieces or nephews how to play a game, and I have to show them all the fake buttons they have to avoid to manage to play it through the dark patterns. Even Windows, the OS, is full of traps now. You can't buy any software and have it pretend to be yours anymore.

Used to be the case for free mobile games at first, now it's everywhere.

If it were on GOG, there would be no DRM or third party accounts required. With potential exception for online play. But most GOG games are single player offline games. Even online games would be more of the type where you run local server and connect with you friends by sharing IP:port combo.
That doesn't directly answer the question.

The answer seems to be that MAFD refers to the union of the M, A, F, and D extensions to the baseline ISA, adding integer multiplication and division instructions (M), atomic instructions (A), single-precision floating point instructions (F), and double-precision floating point instructions (D).
Valve is already fully covered, they will honor refunds to the game and any loss they make will be taken out of future sales. Of course it's possible that future sales won't make up for the loss in this case, but Valve is still very unlikely to make a loss overall.
I don't get it, what are they trying to say?
Indeed, industrial electric motors have an exemption in the FCC regulations because of this. I wouldn't be surprised that EV's are similarly exempt.
I'm not sure why this was downvoted. The author is correct.

Given that space communications and the militarization of space is becoming more and more prevalent, we are on the cusp of seeing some military actions in space that could render a few defense agencies impotent with regards to C3.

I've not liked the search for that one movie to watch. Even worse I've not liked these recommendation services not being specific enough.

Maybe they can't be exact, but they can be closer.

So I made MoodieMoovy to change this. It asks for not only your mood, but also the time of day and day of the week, along with AI to give you a selection of movies that you would more likely watch right now.

If you need something to watch, come try out MoodieMoovy, hopefully it works for you.

Thank you!
Last time I heard it ppl were almost killed and whistle blowers were assassinated by suicide.

> 64-bit architectures are not affected by the y2k38 problem, but they are affected by this transition.

I read the article with my limited knowledge and I couldn't find an explanation for this statement. Can someone elaborate?

Because a currency symbol is less correct (think $) and isn't as recognisable. Flags have colours that make them easier to pick out, and can be displayed at much smaller resolutions.
I like all suggestions of the list, but I wonder (no pun intended) how it could play out in a mission critical domain where the intent and communication precision it’s a critical requirement.

Working in a multicultural + low consequence domain, all those tips makes great sense since it equalises all communications in an candid and respectful tone. Specially in work environments that does not have a set of cultural training upfront.

In my experience in cross-continent environments, the best work cultures were the ones striving with full directness and concise communications.

Much of the NIMBY thinking sounds the thinking behind HOAs - I don’t want poor people or low income folks to live near me.

The idea their old cars, or cars in work are an eyesore, they paint their house a bad color, or they all play loud music, do drugs and bring crime, it will lower my house value keep them away. It’s all very selfish in a country where people are supposedly allowed to have a pursuit of happiness.

I find it’s mostly upper middle class trying to isolate themselves like the rich can, but they don’t have enough money to buy enough land or be in areas that cost so much they limit who really can be in the area.

It’s very American, me me me

The main benefit of 4K displays is sharper vector fonts. It's very important to imitate the exact shapes of print fonts, so despite sharp fonts already being available for decades in bitmap form, we've got to push those pixels.

Likewise, it's very important to know the exact Z-order of the window stack at all times, despite only interacting with one at a time. This means it's absolutely necessary to render translucent drop shadows for each window, which obviously need some Gaussian blur. A simple blitter won't cut it. And better add some subtle translucency to the window decorations too, just in case the shadows are obscured.

Don't forget the mandatory rounded corners, gradient fills, and animations. How can the user know the computer's actually working if things aren't sliding about the screen?

Of course, it's important to remove useless features, like theming. If users are permitted self-expression they might start getting the wrong idea about who really controls the machine.
Only if you really squint, but at that level you too are enacting the meme… but who cares? If the shoe fits…

Valve is offering full refunds, in practice very few people would bother going through any legal mess when they can just get their money back.

This is not very realistic. I don't want to become a package maintainer of somebody else's library.

But I 100% agree that submodules are not good. I'm hoping Pijul will handle that sort of thing better but I haven't tried it.

C++ modules need a lot of communication between build systems, compilers, packaging environments, and other dev tools like clangd. Given some of that interop isn't available anywhere due to missing or at least unimplemented protocols, I expect XMake is overpromising here. The CMake blogs are more qualified:

2. Importing the std module: https://www.kitware.com/import-std-in-cmake-3-30/

It's not because it's a threat, it was to make it easier to catch the zebra, which has been getting spooked by all these extra people hoping to see it. There's been all sorts of folks out there causing it to panic and run away. They tried asking people not to "help", and it didn't help, so then they closed trails etc.

Talk about things to get tired of, it's people automatically thinking things are nannying, or whatever their specific anti-todays-government thing is, and then being sure to spread what they have decided something is, in their infinite wisdom, without taking even a few minutes to think beyond their immediate bias.
The problem I see in the current culture is that most people view the ancient texts through translations that seem almost illiterate compared to the original language.

I will take your word that some religions don't study the Bible. The study I went through was pretty in depth and I still have revelations 40+ years after the initial studying.

The difference between oral tradition and the written word is that the written word takes discipline. Some of the early religions have strict rules on capturing the text of the documents. The fidelity between contents of the Dead Sea scrolls and the current Torah is impressive.

The oral tradition is a secondary collection of contemporary stories that become the living dialog of the evolving culture.

Some religions contain both oral and written tradition. The written word is stagnant and the cultural understanding is always evolving. I understand the divide you are describing but I know a culture that has managed to maintain both.
Even if true, find a way to capture the zebras. It’s not the hikers problem.

I use Traefik in production (with containers), and my favorite aspect of it is that the configuration is carried via the labels on containers which means I rarely if ever need to make any modifications to the Traefik config itself. I'd say the biggest con is trying to figure out how to pronounce the name - I think it's just regular traffic, but I can't help wanting to call it "trey-feek" or something like that.
Research aims to curb illegal sand mining with data-driven mapping tools
Maybe people could learn what a portable transistor radio is. Maybe they could just give you one with your car. Sell one for $2.99. Is a car really your best option to be in in an emergency? Sometimes you need to get out of that car, maybe find shelter. That car radio is not going help you at all while down in a cellar as tornadoes have ripped through and destroyed everything including your car.
The people criticizing std::optional are doing a very poor job.

Here's the big issue: unchecked access to std::optional with operator* has undefined behavior when there's no value.

This is unforgivably bad design since you can enforce exhaustive checking at compile time, but C++ isn't going in that direction.

std::optional offers value() for checked access too, but that checks at runtime and throws an exception.

It is possible to have an optional with no runtime check, no undefined behaviour, and guaranteed handling of both cases by checking at compile time. This is what Rust offers.

Undefined behaviour being easy to invoke absolutely does matter for real world code.
I don't know if people anticipated contemporary parroting behavior over huge datasets. Modern well funded models can recall an obscure persons home address buried deep into the training set. I guess the techniques described might be presented to the European audience in an attempt to maintain access to their data/and or market for sales. I hope they fail.
Why not target the unhelpful behavior instead of a blanket trail closure for who knows how long.

We all own nature.
This is presumably about a chatbot though, not AGI, so it's basically a way of limiting what they say. (Not a way that I expect to succeed)
Times are historically good here. To the extent immigration promotes instability it is not through economic malaise.

If you're a fan of legal immigration, that's great - then certainly you agree that we ought to increase it rather than restrict it.
>These sorts of cases are often attempts to establish precedent that they can use to go after others under similar theories.

There is already a lot of precedent around policies related to spoliation which is why it would be a surprise to me if Google's legal team actually did advise employees to do this as a blanket policy. It seems more likely that they said they could do it for things that are not potentially relevant to litigation and the execs took it as far as they wanted to go.
